Expedition 48-Kerbal Deep-Space Station (expandable)

[Colonel_Panic]

Holds 8 kerbals in command modules, and another 40 in hitchiker storage containers, includes the new parts and has a fantastic view from all sides of the station. Will go up in a single launch, but it is also modularized so you can launch it piecemeal if you want. The engine and fuel tank modules in particular are designed to be swapped out in flight for smaller or larger ones as needed for different missions. Also features 8 clamp-o-tron Sr ports, 2 regular clamp-o-tron ports, and 8 clamp-o-tron Jr ports for expansions or landers. Has enough delta v in current configuration to get to eve or duna and back easily, and possibly even round-trip to laythe via 8 LV-N engines.

Also includes a Jeb seat on the upper port fuel tank if you want to make the crew 49.

Lifter not included since mine was a total hack job and lagged like crazy, but it's not difficult to get into orbit if you're willing to siphon off some of the station's fuel for the ascent and top it off again in orbit, or just go easy mode and send it up in pieces with subassembly loader (when it's updated) and assemble it in orbit.
